What Makes a Cad?

is like big horned June bug in the moral
atmosphere. We can evade him. His
own wicket trumpet announces him, but
who can elude the sting of the little, con-
temptible. noiseless CAD flies that some
times make life miserable could per
haps9 climb a tree to get out Of the Why
Of great roaring bull, but what tree can
shelter one from mosquitoes So, re-
peat it, 1 hate cad. And what makes
cad' Laziness, tnsoience, sosled speech,
way Of holding a cigar in one corner OF
the mouth, style Of tipping the hat over
the ear, disrespectful mention Of women,
lack of respect for things the noblest ren-
erate-all these characteristics enter
largely into the makeup Of cad; but like
bread, which !s composed Of -four, salt
and water yet lacks yeast, SO the cad's
true character never sttains perfection
without the ingredient OF ingratitude.
That vice is the strong point In cad's
personality. In Chicago Journal

It is painfully evident that crisis in trousers

people had crossed the mountains expressly to
tight the Blackfeet, and they intended to ex.
terminate them, man, woman and child, and
use their country for game preserve
The BErkfeet chiefs were turned into the
corral, fiji st having been strongly advised by
Haley to accept the terms offered. They
talked for few minutes with their men, and
the terms were accepted. Tho horses were

that tho ceremonies connected with the ratifi-

worth seeing. He urged me to remain to see
the treaty made and to see the summer trade

A Prophet Honored in Its Own Country.
The Hale Pavement Company, of which
r. II. Catlett of Staunton, is President, is
being pushed with great energy by Gen.
T l.. Rosser, its Business Manager, and a
railroad excursion with Pullman buffet
cars has been organized to bring prominent
men from the great cities to see the sue
cess of the longest test that has been
made of it, In Charleston, W. Va. where
the inventor lives, and where the first
Hale pavement was laid (some fourteen
gears ago) and where it stands to-day
as good as new; the Charleston "Star" in
noticing the new company says of it:
Charleston has the honor of being the
first to practically test hard brick for
street paving, and by long and hard usage
to demonstrate their superiority to any
other material. While granite blocks,
Nicholson wooden blocks and asphalt, are
transported long distances, even over
ocean and continents, at great expense,
for street paving, there is generally. either
in the streets themselves. or in close prox-
unity, better and far cheaper material.
Good clay can be burned to any degree Of
hardness required, even to vitri6ed, aluml-
mic bricks or blocks, of adamantine hard
ness. We are glad to learn that the value
of brick paving is getting to be pretty gen.
orally recognized and appreciated.

Close of the Society Season.

Tuesday next. the 22d inst., is Shrove
Tuesday, and the next day, Ash Wednes-
day, the solemn season of Lent commences.
With its commencement, ends the gayest
society season that Staunton has had for
twelve years. There have been more ger
mans given by the young men, more dan
cling and whist parties by the young ladies,
and more ladies' dinner parties and gen.
eral receptions by the married ladies, than
the town has seen for long time. One
new club, a very admirable and improving
one, 'sThe Musicale" has been formed,
and one, the "Ruban Rouge" young
ladies club, has been disbanded. The clos
ing entertainment of the season, and one
which has created more stir among our
young people than anything that has
happened for long time, is the fancy
dress masquerade to be given this evening,
by Mrs. M. N. Bradley of No. Is Church
street, in compliment to Misses Frost.
Craeghead, and Ridgway, and for which
some fifty invitations are out.
